<br><br><div style="word-wrap:break-word">The company I work for has a bunch of touch panels (and a few LCD panels) from prototyping of a product we determined would be impractical to bring to market that we're looking to give to a good home. They'll likely be sent off for e-recycling if they aren't grabbed by tonight -- wanted to give a heads up in case anyone is interested. We've got to make it an all-or-nothing thing though (don't have time / resources to let people pick through stuff).<div>
<br></div><div>If interested, please email Malte (<a href="mailto:malte@miselu.com" target="_blank">malte@miselu.com</a>) to set up a time to pick them up tonight.</div><div><br></div><div>Note that the LCDs we have left are (I believe) LVDS -- *not* VGA/DVI, and interfacing may be a bit challenging (especially the "cut" ones). I think the touch panels all have a SIS touch controller, though not positive (forgot to check before, and I'm working remotely today). <br>

<span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">"Touch screen panel" refers to just the touch overlay, not an LCD. It's my understanding that the touch panels all have I2C interface, except the ones that explicitly have USB. It's my understanding that these shouldn't be hard to interface.</span><br>

<span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial"></span><br>
<span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">"cutting" refers to some of the displays actually being physically cut in size by an LCD company -- it was cheaper for prototyping to have full sized screens cut to size than to have to-size LCDs built from scratch. The panels work -- they are just physically smaller, though they are driven like a full sized display.</span><br>

<span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial"></span><br>
<span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">We are looking for someone to take the entire stack at once; we're in a pretty big crunch and really don't have cycles available to deal with logistics / sorting / etc, but would really like these to go to a good home.</span> </div>
